These fireworks look like they should be on someone's MySpace page, along with unicorns and happy hump day notes

Fri. 7/4/08 4:17pm HotRod:

What's wrong with humping and what's so bad about unicorns?

Fri. 7/4/08 4:18pm Randy in NC:

Nothin I guess, maybe it's the purple, magenta, and sparkliness

Fri. 7/4/08 4:20pm HotRod:

Fri. 7/4/08 5:08pm PARIA:

-DAS IST GEIL - thanks a lot WFMU says listener PARIA from BERLIN

Fri. 7/4/08 5:09pm Clarence Washington:

Yea, but what a chord! Hey - is this Bull in a Heather?

Fri. 7/4/08 5:09pm Ismael:

I heart when Kim sings.

Fri. 7/4/08 5:11pm Glenn L:

Why use two chords when one'll do just fine?

Fri. 7/4/08 5:11pm Clarence Washington:

Was bedeutet das Wort "Geil" Paria?

Fri. 7/4/08 5:12pm Clarence Washington:

Yea...chords are so 20th century.

Fri. 7/4/08 5:15pm PARIA:

My online dictionary translates 'geil' as 'hot; terrific; wicked; awesome' ; I would say it means something like 'absolut great'

Fri. 7/4/08 5:15pm mike:

I don't know whether to feel relieved that I can hear this show (albeit 1000 miles away) or even more jealous than I was already.

Fri. 7/4/08 5:18pm Laurie:

Super sounding riffs from the Super Sonic Rascals!

Fri. 7/4/08 5:19pm Clarence Washington:

Vielen dank, Paria. Auch, Berlin is sehr nett.

Smile like a sun, back over time
Crazy fr you, pleasure is mine
I love you, I love you, I love you, whats your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, whats your name?

Youre coming thru, even it up
Going too far, try understand
I love you, I love you, I love you, whats your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, whats your name?

Whisper kiss yr ear, Ill tell you what I fear
Whisper the kisses in yr ear, Ill tell you what I fear

Come on home, just aint fair
Name of rocknroll, where love dies
Couldnt find a soul, tell it like it is
Deep down inside, drunken butterfly
I love you, I love you, I love you, whats your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, whats your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, whats your name?
I love you, I love you, I love you, whats your name?
